Only The Lonely - Freddie Mercury and Elton John (platonic) // part 2

Part two... They may be going slightly mad here.. 

I love reading the comments :)

Thanks again to @breeoc97 - I think this is the longest oneshot I've done yet

---------------------

Rory babbles, getting slightly impatient and hungry. She starts to chew on her shirt.

Freddie and Elton begin to make lunch with the kids happily watching on.

"Do kids usually watch you make their food?" Elton asks Freddie playfully.

"Usually not, but I think they find us making lunch fascinating!" Freddie says as he chuckles.

Rory claps her hands in agreement, babbling in French as she sits on the countertop. Freddie is keeping an eye on her but needed his hands free to make lunch, so there she sits.

"Everything is fascinating to kids, I suppose." Elton adds. He can't help but smile a bit.

"I want mine cut into triangles, please!" Felix says when he looks at the bread.

"We can do that! What do you guys want to drink?" Freddie asks the kids.

"Juice!" Rory says as she claps her hands.

"Yeah, yeah! I want juice too!" Felix says.

"Milk, please!" Louisa says eagerly with a smile.

"I want juice as well, please!" Jimmy answers politely.

"Got it.. I hope you all like orange juice, because that's what we have." Freddie laughs.

"We love it!" Felix says and Rory squeals in agreement.

"Looks like lunch is almost done!" Elton says as he gets the paper plates out.

"Woah! Looks sooooo good!" Felix says with a big grin.

"YES! I'm hungry!" Louisa adds and she also grins.

"Me too!" Jimmy says as he jumps around happily.

Elton was just glad that the kids were happy. He picks up Rory and she slips right out of his arms.

He sighs quietly, at first a bit concerned, but realising she wasn't hurt, he felt less worried.

But another feeling washes over him, leaving a weird taste from the emotion in his mouth.

He stands next to Freddie and starts talking to him, while the toddler is dancing to a song on her head, perfectly on beat.

"I'm not sure she likes me," Elton mutters, a slight frown on his face. "Every time I try to do what you do, she just leaves me. She just likes you more." He was insecure.

"She doesn't know you fully. She'll love you, don't worry." Freddie says with a grin.

Rory walks back over to Elton, hugging his arm.

Elton gives a small smile at Rory, feeling a bit more confident. But only a little. "You're right, Freddie."

Rory smiles back at the singer, her eyes full of interest. She waits patiently to see what to do next.

"Okay, the food is ready! Come and get it." Freddie says to the children, in a similar way he talks to his cats.

Felix, Jimmy and Louisa grab a plate and sit down at the table, while Rory looks determined to do the same.

The youngest child can't reach her plate, though, and begins to cry with frustration.
